GPU Role

The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 plays a central role in delivering the high frame rates seen in Dave The Diver. Its 12 GB of GDDR6X memory on a 192-bit bus provides a memory bandwidth of 504.2 GB/s, which is more than adequate for the game's stylized art style and moderate texture sizes. The GPU's core configuration includes 5,888 shading units, 184 texture mapping units, and 64 raster output units, which collectively handle the rendering workload with ease.

Clock speeds are also a factor; the GPU operates at a base clock of 1920 MHz and a boost clock of 2475 MHz. These clocks, combined with the high memory bandwidth, allow the RTX 4070 to maintain high frame rates even when the resolution is scaled up to 3840x2160. The GPU also features 46 RT cores and 184 tensor cores, though Dave The Diver does not heavily utilize ray tracing or DLSS, the raw rasterization performance is what drives the results here.

The GPU's average benchmark score of 37,283 places it in the 81st percentile, and its nearest rivals show how competitive it is. For example, it is only 2.2% behind the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Mobile in average score, despite being a desktop part. This suggests that the RTX 4070 is a well-rounded performer that does not struggle with the DirectX 12 workload presented by the game.

Measured FPS Breakdown

The measured FPS data reveals a consistent scaling pattern across resolutions and settings. At 1920x1080, the combo is exceptionally fast, starting at 320.8 FPS on Low settings and dropping to 238.2 FPS on High and 212.6 FPS on Ultra. The Medium setting sits in between at 268.1 FPS. This indicates that even at the highest preset, the frame rate remains far above the refresh rate of most monitors, making the game feel exceptionally fluid.

Moving to 2560x1440, the performance remains stellar. The Low setting produces an average of 241.6 FPS, while Medium yields 201.8 FPS and High delivers 179.3 FPS. Ultra settings still manage a very playable 157.8 FPS. The drop from 1080p to 1440p is noticeable but not drastic, showing that the GPU has enough headroom to handle the increased pixel count without significant compromise.

At 3840x2160, the combo continues to impress. Low settings produce 163.1 FPS, Medium drops to 133.4 FPS, and High settings achieve 118 FPS. Even at Ultra, the game maintains an average of 105.9 FPS, which is comfortably above the 60 FPS standard for smooth gameplay. This data shows that the RTX 4070 is powerful enough to deliver a high-refresh-rate 4K experience in this title, evidence of its efficiency.

Resolution Scaling

The transition from 1080p to 4K reveals how the workload shifts between the CPU and GPU. At 1920x1080 with Low settings, the frame rate of 320.8 FPS suggests that the CPU is still able to keep up with the GPU's output, as the load on the graphics card is relatively light. However, the drop to 238.2 FPS at High and 212.6 FPS at Ultra at the same resolution indicates that the GPU is starting to become more involved, though the CPU remains capable of feeding it data.

When scaling to 2560x1440, the frame rates show a predictable decline. The Low setting drops from 320.8 to 241.6 FPS, a 24.7% reduction, while Ultra drops from 212.6 to 157.8 FPS, a 25.8% reduction. This consistent scaling suggests that the GPU is becoming the primary limiting factor, but the Ryzen 5 5600's 6-core, 12-thread configuration with a boost clock of 4.40 GHz is still providing sufficient single-thread performance to avoid major bottlenecks.

At 3840x2160, the GPU's load increases significantly. The frame rate for Low settings falls to 163.1 FPS, a 32.5% drop from the 1440p figure, and Ultra falls to 105.9 FPS, a 32.9% drop. This larger percentage decrease at 4K confirms that the RTX 4070 is now the dominant constraint, as the pixel fill rate and memory bandwidth become critical. The CPU's role diminishes, and the data shows that the combo is well-balanced, with the GPU handling the high-resolution rendering while the CPU ensures consistent frame pacing throughout.
